Answer: 197,443,926,105,102,399,225,573,693

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we use combination which is the selection of all or part of a set of objects or items without considering the order of selection.

Mathematically, The number of 'r' combinations from 'n' elements is given as :

nCr = n!÷((n-r)!r!)

From the question above :

n=99 r=66

99C66 = 99!÷((99-66)!66!)

99!÷(33!66!) = 197,443,926,105,102,399,225,573,693

There are 197,443,926,105,102,399,225,573,693 different possible routes.

Answer:

Customer will save 8.3%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of bill paid by the customers = $x

Local tourism tax = 9%

Total amount of bill including local taxes

= (x + 9% of x)

= x + 0.09x

= 1.09x

If Lucy decides to pay the tax portion of the bill = 0.09x

Then percentage saving by the customer = [tex]\frac{\text{Taxes on bill}}{\text{Bill amount including tax}}\times 100[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{0.09x}{1.09x}\times 100[/tex]

= 8.26%

≈ 8.3%

Therefore, customer will see 8.3% saving.

Answer:the admission cost for each player is $22.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the admission cost for each player.

Luke's basketball team went to an amusement park at the end of the season. The cost of the admission for 5 coaches and 12 players was 407.50. The admission cost for each coach was 27.50. This means that

5 × 27.50 + 12x = 407.5

137.5 + 12x = 407.5

Subtracting 137.5 from the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation, it becomes

12x + 137.5 - 137.5= 407.5 - 137.5

12x = 270

Dividing the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation by 12, it becomes

12x/12 = 270/12

x = 270/12 = 22.5

Answer:

$22.5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the cost for each player, first, let us find the cost of all coaches, then the rest will be for the players

Step 1: Multiply the cost for 1 coach by 5

[tex]27.50 \times 5 = 137.5[/tex]

Step 2: Subtract the result from the total amount of both players and coaches

[tex]407.50 - 137.5 = 270[/tex]

Now we have found the total cost of all 12 players. Next up, we need to find the cost of just one player

Step 3: Divide the result by the number of players

[tex]270 \div 5[/tex]

[tex]= \frac{270}{5}[/tex]

[tex]= 22.5[/tex]

The admission cost for each player was 22.5 dollars.

Answer:

Bianca's height = 42 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the Bianca height.

Given:

Meredith height = 60 inches

We need to find the Bianca height.

Solution:

From the given statement the Meredith's height is [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] of Bianca's height plus 32 inches, so the equation is.

Meredith's height = [tex]\frac{2}{3}(Bianca\ height)+32[/tex]

Substitute Meredith's height in above equation.

[tex]60=\frac{2}{3}x+32[/tex]

Now we solve the above equation for x.

[tex]\frac{2}{3}x=60-32[/tex]

[tex]\frac{2}{3}x=28[/tex]

By cross multiplication.

[tex]x=\frac{3\times 28}{2}[/tex]

28 divided by 2.

[tex]x= 3\times 14[/tex]

[tex]x=42\ in[/tex]

Therefore, the height of the Bianca is 42 inches.

Answer:

  a) 22π cm/s; on the odd half-second (t=0.5, 1.5, 2.5, 3.5, 4.5); at the rest position; zero

  b) 22 cm from the rest position; zero

Step-by-step explanation:

Undamped simple harmonic motion is not complicated. Acceleration is a maximum where the applied force is a maximum, at the extremes of position. Since the position is extreme, the velocity is zero at those points. All of the energy is potential energy.

The speed is a maximum when the object is at the rest position, There is no applied force at that point, and no acceleration. All of the energy has been transformed to kinetic energy.

Part A:

The cart's velocity is given by the derivative of the position:

  s'(t) = -22π·sin(πt)

This has a maximum magnitude (speed) of 22π ≈ 69.1 cm/s, as you have noted.

The speed is a maximum at the rest position. The cart is there on each odd quarter-period, at t=0.5, 1.5, 2.5, 3.5, 4.5 seconds.

The cart's acceleration is given by the derivative of the velocity:

  s'' = -22π²·cos(πt)

On the odd quarter-period, the acceleration is zero.

Part B:

Acceleration is greatest when position is greatest (both are cosine functions). The speed of the cart is zero then (it is a sine function). The sine is at an extreme when the cosine is zero, and vice versa.

_____

The attached graph shows position, velocity, and acceleration (color coded).

To solve part b of the question, we need to find the point where the magnitude of the acceleration is greatest. This can be done by finding the derivative of the acceleration function and setting it equal to zero. The value of t that satisfies this equation can then be used to find the position and speed of the cart.

In order to solve part b of the question, we need to find the point where the magnitude of the acceleration is greatest. We can do this by finding the derivative of the acceleration function and setting it equal to zero. The derivative of the acceleration function is given by: a'(t) = -22πsin(πt). Setting this equal to zero gives: -22πsin(πt) = 0. Solving for t, we find that t = 1/2.

Now that we have the value of t, we can plug it back into the position function to find the position of the cart when the magnitude of the acceleration is greatest. The position function is given by: s(t) = 22cos(πt). Plugging in t = 1/2, we get: s(1/2) = 22cos(π/2) = 0.

To find the cart's speed when the magnitude of the acceleration is greatest, we can plug t = 1/2 into the velocity function. The velocity function is the derivative of the position function, which is given by: v(t) = -22πsin(πt). Plugging in t = 1/2, we get: v(1/2) = -22πsin(π/2) = 22π.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that an  investigator reviewed the medical records of 200 children seen for care at Boston Medical Center in the past year who were between the ages 8 and 12 and identified 40 children with asthma. He also identified 40 children of the same ages who were free of asthma. Each child and their family were interviewed to assess whether there might be an association between certain environmental factors such as exposure to second-hand smoke.

The objective of this experiment is to test the causes of the disease asthma and to find the risk factors and environment causing this disease.

4. It depends on the amount of time she's been driving

Answer:

she should beat a speed of  v₂ = 6.04 m/s in order to win the competition

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the momentum p is defined as

p = m*v

where

m= mass of the ball

v= velocity of the ball

denoting 1 and 2 as the first and second bowler , then to reach the momentum of the first bowler

p₂=p₁

therefore

m₁*v₁ = m₂*v₂

v₂ = v₁ * (m₁/m₂)

replacing values

v₂ = v₁ * (m₁/m₂) =8.6 m/s * (4.5 kg/6.4 kg ball) = 6.04 m/s

then since the momentum p = m*v increases with increasing v (at constant m)  , she should beat a speed of  v₂ = 6.04 m/s in order to win the competition

Answer:

Cost of each banana smoothies is 3.25 and Cost of each Strawberry smoothie is 3.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of strawberry smoothies =3

Number of banana smoothies = 5

Total cost = 27.50

We need to find cost of strawberry cookies and cost of banana cookies.

Solution:

Let cost of each banana smoothies be 'x'.

Given:

The strawberry smoothie cost 0.50 more than the banana smoothies.

So we can say that;

Cost of each Strawberry smoothie = [tex]0.5+x[/tex]

Now we can say that Total cost is equal to sum of Number of strawberry smoothies multiplied by Cost of Strawberry smoothie and Number of banana smoothies multiplied by cost of banana smoothies.

framing in equation form we get;

[tex]3(x+0.5)+5x=27.5[/tex]

Applying distributive property we get;

[tex]3x+1.5+5x=27.5\\\\8x+1.5=27.5[/tex]

Subtracting both side by 1.5 we get;

[tex]8x+1.5-1.5=27.5-1.5\\\\8x=26[/tex]

Dividing both side by 8 we get;

[tex]\frac{8x}{8}=\frac{26}{8}\\\\x=3.25[/tex]

Cost of each banana smoothies = 3.25

Cost of each Strawberry smoothie = [tex]0.5+x=0.5+3.25=3.75[/tex]

Hence Cost of each banana smoothies is 3.25 and Cost of each Strawberry smoothie is 3.75.

Jayden must have at least 16 quarters in order to have at most 25 coins worth at least $4.60 combined.

Let's assume Jayden has x quarters. Since Jayden has 7 dimes, he has a total of 7 + x coins. The value of a dime is $0.10, so the value of the dimes is 7 × $0.10 = $0.70.

The value of a quarter is $0.25, so the value of the quarters is x × $0.25 = $0.25x. The total value of all the coins is at least $4.60, so we have the equation:

$0.70 + $0.25x ≥ $4.60.

Simplifying the equation, we get:

$0.25x ≥ $4.60 - $0.70

$0.25x ≥ $3.90

x ≥ $3.90 / $0.25

x ≥ 15.6

Since we can't have a fraction of a coin, Jayden must have at least 16 quarters in order to have at most 25 coins worth at least $4.60 combined.

The perimeter of Kayla's garden including the walkway can be calculated using the formula P = 2(4 + 2w) + 2(3 + 2w), where w is the width of the walkway. This can also be rearranged as P = 2*(4 + 3 + 2w + 2w).

The perimeter of a rectangle, like the garden in question, is usually calculated by adding up the lengths of all its sides. In this case, however, the garden is bordered by a walkway of width w. Thus, to calculate the total perimeter, including the walkway, we need to account for this additional width on all four sides of the garden.

The original dimensions of the garden are 4 feet by 3 feet. With the walkway, the new dimensions become (4+2w) feet by (3+2w) feet, because the width of the walkway is added on both sides of the lengths.

Therefore, the two equivalent expressions for the perimeter, P, of Kayla's garden, including the walkway, are P = 2(4 + 2w) + 2(3 + 2w) or simply rearranged as P = 2*(4 + 3 + 2w + 2w). In these expressions, w is the width of the walkway.

Answer:

The answer to your question is x = 52° and y = 137°

Step-by-step explanation:

Process

1.- Find the value of x using the large right triangle, remember that the sum of the internal angles in a triangle equals 180°.

   x  + 38 + 90 = 180

  x = 180 - 90 - 38

  x = 52°

2.- To find y, we notice that x and y -9 are supplementary angles so their sum gives 180°.

           x + y - 9 = 180

Substitution

          52 + y - 9 = 180

          y = 180 + 9 - 52

          y = 137°

Answer:

Length of the living room is 24 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Area of the living room = [tex]360 \ ft^2[/tex]

We need to find the length of the living room.

Solution:

the length of the living room be 'l'.

Given:

Width of the living room [tex]\frac{5}{8}\ ft[/tex] of it length.

width [tex]w= \frac{5}{8}l[/tex]

It has been given that living room is in rectangular format.

So we can say that;

Area of living room is equal to length of the living room times width of the living room.

framing in equation form we get;

[tex]l\times w=360\\\\l\times\frac{5}{8}l=360\\\\\frac{5}{8}l^2=360[/tex]

Now Multiplying both side by [tex]\frac{8}{5}[/tex] we get;

[tex]\frac{5}{8}l^2\times\frac{8}{5}=360\times\frac{8}{5}\\\\l^2= 576[/tex]

Taking square root on both side we get;

[tex]\sqrt{l^2} =\sqrt{576} \\\\l=24 \ ft[/tex]

Hence Length of the living room is 24 feet.

Answer:

  x = π

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference of the circle is given by ...

  C = 2πr = 2π(2) = 4π

The perimeter of a square of side length x is given by ...

  P = 4x

You want the perimeter equal to the circumference, so ...

  4π = 4x

  π = x . . . . . . . divide by 4

The value of x is π.

The side length x of the square is the same as the radius of the circle, which is π units, because the perimeter of the square, 4x units, is set equal to the circumference of the circle, 4π units.

It is asked to determine the side length x of a square when its perimeter is equal to the circumference of a circle with radius 2 units.

To find the perimeter of a square, you multiply the side length by 4, since a square has four equal sides. Thus, the perimeter of the square is 4x units.

The formula for the circumference of a circle is [tex]C = 2\pi r,[/tex] where r is the radius of the circle.

Given that the radius is 2 units, the circumference of the circle would be [tex]2\pi (2) = 4\pi[/tex]units.

By setting the two equal to each other:

[tex]4x = 4\pi[/tex]

Divide both sides by 4 to isolate x:

[tex]x = \pi[/tex]

Therefore, the side length x of the square is π units.

Answer: 19 paddle boards were rented.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of surfboards that were rented.

Let y represent the number of paddleboards that were rented.

A total of 44 surfboards and paddleboards were rented. It means that

x + y = 44

For a two day rental at the surf shop, it cost $45 to rent a surfboard and $60 to rent a paddleboard.

The total cost of surfboards and paddleboards rented was $2265. This means that

45x + 60y = 2265 - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 44 - y into equation 1, it becomes

45(44 - y) + 60y = 2265

1980 - 45y + 60y = 2265

- 45y + 60y = 2265 - 1980

15y = 285

y = 285/15 = 19

x = 44 - y = 44 - 19

x = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

D= Both Alzheimer's are less than 80years old.

E= Two of 3 people who have Alzheimer's.

P(D | E ) = P ( D ∩ E)

P ( E )

= P ( A ∩ B ∩ C )

P ( A ∩ B ∩ C ) + P ( A ∩ B ∩ C ) + P ( A ∩ B ∩ C )

= Pa * Pb * (1 - Pc ) Pa * Pb * (1 - Pc ) + (1 - Pa ) * Pb * Pc + Pa * (1 - Pb ) * Pc

= 0.0017

=0.0010+0.0017+0.0037

=0.1064

The conditional probability that two individuals with Alzheimer's are both under 80 cannot be precisely calculated without more information about the general probabilities of each condition. However, the general formula for calculating conditional probability is P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B|A).

This is essentially a question about conditional probability. In order to calculate the conditional probability suggested by the question – that is, the probability that both individuals with Alzheimer's disease are younger than 80, given that we know that two people have the disease – we'd need more information about the overall probabilities of having Alzheimer's disease and being under 80. However, if we had this information the formula for conditional probability is P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B|A). In this equation, P(A) would be the probability that a randomly selected individual has Alzheimer's, P(B|A) would be the probability that a known Alzheimer's patient is under 80, and P(A and B) is the conditional probability we're trying to figure out. So, we'd need to multiply P(A) by P(B|A) to get P(A and B)

Answer:

Water level in the reservoir is falling at the rate of 0.398 ft per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

Water level in the reservoir has been given as 10 feet and radius of the reservoir is 4 feet.

Let the level of water in the reservoir after time t is h where radius of the water level becomes r.

ΔABE and ΔCDE are similar.

Therefore, their corresponding sides will be in the same ratio.

[tex]\frac{r}{h}=\frac{4}{10}[/tex]

[tex]r=\frac{2}{5}h[/tex] --------(1)

Now volume of the water V = [tex]\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h[/tex]

From equation (1),

V = [tex]\frac{4\pi h^{2}\times h}{75}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{4\pi }{75}\times \frac{d}{dt}(h^{3})[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{4\pi }{75}\times (3h^{2})\frac{dh}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{12\pi h^{2}}{75}\times \frac{dh}{dt}[/tex]

Since [tex]\frac{dV}{dt}=5[/tex] feet³ per minute and h = 5 feet

[tex]5=\frac{12\pi (5)^{2}}{75}\times \frac{dh}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]5=4\pi \frac{dh}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{5}{4\pi}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dh}{dt}=0.398[/tex] feet per minute

Therefore, water level in the reservoir is falling at the rate of 0.398 feet per minute.

Answer:

Denominator

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the denominator of the fraction at point y.

Given:

Point X is at 2/3 on a number line from 0.

On the same line, point y is the same point from 0.

Numerator of the fraction at point y is 8.

We need to find the denominator of the fraction at point y.

Solution:

From the above statement the distance from 0 to point X and 0 to point Y is same, so point X is equal to Y.

[tex]\frac{2}{3} =\frac{8}{x}[/tex]

By cross multiplication.

[tex]x=\frac{8\times 3}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x= \frac{24}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x = 12[/tex]

Therefore, the denominator of the fraction at point y is 12.

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

The can will hold 75.36 inch³ of soup.

The volume of a cylinder with base radius 'r' and height 'h' is,

V = πr²h. If its base diameter is d, then we have d = r/2.

Given:

Radius = 2 inches

Height = 6 inches

So, Volume of Cylinder = πr²h

Now, put r= 2 inches and h= 6 inches

Then, Volume of cylinder = 3.14 x 2 x 2 x 6

Volume of Cylinder = 3.14 x 24

Volume of Cylinder = 75.6 inch³

Hence, the can hold 75.36 inch³.

Answer: B, non response bias, and sampling bias

Step-by-step explanation:

Non response bias is when there is a huge difference between people that responded or took part in the polls and people that didn't respond, since we are told the response rate was 24% and sampling bias because it is said that most people using telephones belong to the party of candidate A, so using a telephone poll makes the sampling biased

The incorrect prediction occurred due to non-response bias, where not all opinions were represented due to a low response rate, and sampling bias, where the sampling method resulted in an under-representation of the whole population.

In this election prediction scenario, two types of biases influenced the incorrect prediction. The first is a non-response bias. Only 24% of people responded to the poll which means the opinions of the remaining 76% of people are not represented in the survey results. This can cause a distortion in the data and result in an inaccurate prediction. Secondly, there was a sampling bias present. The poll was conducted via telephone directories, and at the time, most telephone households were supportive of Candidate A's party. This means that the sample frame does not accurately represent the target population, leading to an 'undercoverage' issue. As a result of these biases, the newspaper predicted that Candidate A would win, but in fact, Candidate B won with about 62% of the popular vote.

Answer:

8.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The longest side of an acute isosceles triangle is 12 centimeters.

Let x be the length of the smallest side

Isosceles triangle has one longest side and two smallest sides

so its acute triangle

[tex]c^2<a^2 +b^2[/tex]

where c is the longest side

a  and b are two shortest sides 'x'

[tex]c^2<x^2 +x^2[/tex]

[tex]12^2<x^2 +x^2[/tex]

[tex]144<2x^2[/tex]

divide both sides by 2

[tex]72<x^2[/tex]take square root on both sides

[tex]8.4<x[/tex]

So 8.4 cm

Answer:the coastline is 20000 miles.

The land boundaries are 12000 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the entire border of the Unites States is approximately 32,000 miles.

5/8 of the entire length is the coastline. It means that the length of the coastline of the U.S would be

5/8 × 32000 = 20000 miles.

Therefore, the length of the boundaries of the US would be

32000 - 20000 = 12000 miles.
